This Week.......
So where better than Las Vegas to start playing some shows?
we will be playing Tabu@MGM Grand tonight and then we have an early start for a photo shoot with respected photographer Doug Sonders on friday in the Nevada desert.
We cannot be in Vegas without hitting a few casino's before we leave for DC early Saturday morning. We play 'FUR' in DC for the first time, so we are all looking forward to that one!.
we have been kindly asked to be groomed at the amazing 'groominglounge.com' on sunday before we head down to South Beach for the Winter Music Conference. There are so many parties going on down there, we play our own party at the Delano Hotel on 3/25. Then we play an official WMC 'Pool Party' on 3/26, before we then play SPACE at midnight!. Friday is the Bullitt Party, before we all pack our bags to head to Belfast on 4th April. I will be recording in London with Ben and Paul all through April, hoping to get the album done!.
we'll have plenty to report from these places next week! and some news on UK dates! :)
bye for now!

Dirty vegas blogging!!!!!
welcome to my first blog! -
What a start to 2009, we we’re asked to play at an ‘Inauguration Party’ at the hot-club ‘Lima’ in Washington DC, alongside ‘Dubfire’. This was an amazing night, the city was electric with the countdown to the new US president Barack Obama. I (Steve) played a stripped down version of the new single ‘Pressure’ and a cover of ‘Say Hello’ which had Dubfire smiling!. Ben and Paul rocked the decks that had actress, Hayden Panettiere (Heroes) dancing in the DJ Booth!.
Then it was onto Park City, Utah for the ‘Sundance Film Festival’ where we played a cool film party and played a track from our new album called ‘Today’ for the first time to a happy crowd! :)
New Single ‘Changes’ is out on Toolroom Records in a few weeks with mixes from ATFC, Mark Knight and eSquire.
We also have remixed the stonking new single from Ladytron called ‘Tomorrow’
We are working on songs as I write this, so its busy busy busy!
Love
Steve
